Looking at Afghanistan

by Kathleen Pohl

Did you know that radio and television were once banned in Afghanistan? Readers will see the towering Hindu Kush Mountains, the red sands of the Rigestan Desert, and the beautiful blue-tiled mosque at Mazar-e Sharif. They'll learn about life in Afghanistan, from Kabul to Kandahar and from sandstorms to silk. This narrative is supported by maps, glossary, index, and fun fact boxes that share little-known information.
